And that is exactly what that website is doing. Everybody gets 
the same access regardless of their browser choice: there is no 
browser sniffing and sending broken, incomplete or less

Common sense is to code for your requirements. And with any 
website that needs to comply with section 508 or 2000/78/EC that 
includes standard compliance. We wouldn't want to break the law, 
would we?
